How to fix?

Upgrade OpenSSL to version 1.0.200 or higher.

Overview

OpenSSL is a SSL/TLS and Crypto toolkit. Deprecated in Mac OS and gone in iOS, this spec gives your project non-deprecated OpenSSL support.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Cryptographic Issues. OpenSSL is vulnerable to denial of service (DoS) attacks. These attacks are possible because the ssl_get_algorithm2 function obtains a version number from an incorrect data structure crashing the daemon through traffic from a TLS 1.2 client.
